Clay Bar

Well guys, I took a clay bar to the old box this weekend, and I have to say I was a little disappointed with the results. I picked up the Mother's California Gold Clay Bar system Saturday morning, and after a good wash I went to town on the paint.

It did accomplish what I had hoped, which was to remove the dried cement / mud reside from when I went through a puddle a couple of weeks ago, but to be honest I really couldn't tell much of a difference in the paint from the before and after

Could it be because the car is garage parked at home and at work ? I use the Zaino Z-5 on a regular basis ( finally picked up some Z-2 though ). Is the Z-5 abrasive enough that it had already removed what the clay bar was intended for ?

Any thoughts or explanations would be appreciated

Thanks,

Nick
